Sympathies

Who likes to make sympathy cards? Is there anyone? It can't be too vibrant, but can't be black and gray either. They have to be simple and elegant to portray sorrow and maybe a shimmer of hope the survivors will be ok. One false move and you have a lovey card or pretty birthday card! Ahh, well at least this is how I feel.

Sympathy cards are probably the ones least cared about and the quickest into the trash can, but hopefully they've done their job along the way. These are for the family of an old friend as he lost his father this week.
